A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I completely get all that, but looking at the typical user base that uses mainstream social media platforms, like TikTok, I don't see them being knowledgeable about some china centered alternative app
I just don't see, how so many would switch to that, as most of them wouldn't have known about it a week ago.
Was it promoted on TikTok?
Yes, it is a Tiktok meme. A few may actually remain on Xiaohongshu but probably most will migrate to whatever logical replacement pops up.
